It took me a while to figure out what to name it, then I figured, would McDonald's change their name based off their location? Tbh, I was going to ask the player to name it, but they weren't around at the time.

Hidden: show

A small festhall on the western edge of the bazaar. It is famous for a song written about the place that is popular among bards north of Amn. Three Glouras run the place, calling themselves the "Deep Queens" and is staffed by beautiful minstrels and dancers.

The pit was added because I remember someone suggesting it a long time ago. The Gloura's also have a system for indentured services for outsiders+citizens (read the letter inside the bar). It's not a guild per-se, but it does give non Drow some consideration.

Also, post here for future suggestions, or PM me. If reasonable, we'll all get what we want down there.

Drizzt D'Urden's Guide to the Underdark, p. 94 wrote: Inns and Taverns

• The Lukhorn’s Gullet (excellent/expensive) is by far the city’s largest dining establishment. Located in a massive, hollow column on the southern periphery of the Dark Weavings Bazaar, this tavern and eatery prides itself on catering to any sentient being, regardless of palate or origin. Diners are seated on ringlike platforms, one atop the next, while drow servers levitate up and down the central shaft delivering food and drink. At least one platform is home to a permanent conflagration catering to flame-dwelling creatures. Two other rings are sealed off by walls of force and flooded with water-saltwater in one, freshwater in the other-allowing aquatic customers the comfort of their home environment.
• The Shattered Scepter (fair/cheap) is an inn of low repute that nevertheless provides reasonable accommodations. Located in western Sshamath, far from the hub of activity, this establishment is fashioned from a massive stalactite that broke loose long ago, fracturing into two massive chunks on impact. The smaller chunk serves as a stable, while the larger holds more than two dozen chambers for paying guests.

Festhalls

• The Glouras’ Wings (good/expensive) is a small festhall on the western edge of the bazaar. Unlike Sshamath’s more luxurious and decadent houses, this hall achieved some fame in the Lands of Light thanks to a ballad penned by the legendary Mintiper Moonsilver after his one and only visit more than a decade ago. [Grym's note: this sourcebook is 2e and written from the perspective of about 1367] The Glouras’ Lament is a soulful hymn inspired by the constant droning song created by the wings of a glouras, described by some adventurers as more beautiful than even siren songs. Mintiper’s composition is now widely sung by bards north of Amn and west of the Great Sand Sea. The festhall itself is run by a trio of Underdark faeries who call themselves the Deep Queens. The three glouras are attended by a troupe of beautiful, skilled minstrels and dancers.
